VNC password hit from Retina

Post by bitlord » 2013/01/18 15:39:28

Hello,
At work the security team told me that when they scanned my servers with Retina and found that VNC doesn't require a password. I have test this and I'm not able to access a VNC session without a password. This looks like it may be a false positive, but I need to make sure, because I want to make sure my servers are secure.

I Have the VNC server installed on RHEL 5, SLES 11 and Solaris 10.

Can someone point me in the right direction.

None of these are CentOS.
I suggest you use their support.

Yeah I know that CentOS is not listed, but RHEL 5 is very similar to CentOS 5

You pay for RHEL support. Use it.
